It’s so wrong but it feels so right…disgraced Minnesota Senate Majority Leader and homophobe Amy Koch had to resign her post after it was revealed that she was boinking a subordinate, a Senate staffer.

“On behalf of all gays and lesbians living in Minnesota, I would like to wholeheartedly apologize for our community’s successful efforts to threaten your traditional marriage,” reads the letter from John Medeiros. “We apologize that our selfish requests to marry those we love has cheapened and degraded traditional marriage so much that we caused you to stray from your own holy union for something more cheap and tawdry.”

The letter comes on the heels of Koch’s own apology, released yesterday, in which she expressed her deep regret for “engaging in a relationship with a Senate staffer.” Although the letter did not specify the identity of the other participant in the “inappropriate relationship,” it is widely rumored to be former communications chief Michael Brodkorb, who lost several positions with the GOP in the wake of the scandal.

Minnesotans will be voting on whether marriage should be “protected” from same sex couples in 2012, but it looks like Koch and other adulterers in Minnesota are doing a great job of destroying the institution.

To summarize [under Minnesota law], if you are an unmarried woman and have sex with any man, married or not, it’s fornication. If you are a married woman, and you have sex with any man, married to somebody else or not, that’s criminal adultery.

However, in the case of criminal adultery, the man can defend on the grounds that he didn’t know that the woman was married. The state of the woman’s knowledge is irrelevant, because, after all, she was married.

Why is this important? Because of this:

But I’ve saved the very best part for last. Consentual homosexual acts may still violate the sodomy law in Minnesota, but the sodomy law is unenforceable under the United States Supreme Court decision in Lawrence v. Texas.

If a cohabiting man and woman — who presumably wracked up multiple counts of fornication or adultery — were charged, could they defend on the grounds that they were denied equal protection compared to a gay couple?

You know what we need? We need a test case. Any idea where we can get one?
